> Thirty years ago, on July 27 1981, Microsoft bought the rights for QDOS (Quick and Dirty Operating System) from Seattle Computer Products (SCP) for $25,000.
I have yet to see a definitive date for the creation of MS-DOS. This is just the date QDOS was purchased.
I run a public "Geeky Events" calendar[1] and the research I've done points to August 12th as the first date "MS-DOS" was created, but even that isn't 100%. Does anyone know the actual date?
